Foilclogh: Lovely views ..... average hike

Summit Comment TommyV 5 days ago
Foilclogh is quite a central hill towards the Southern half of the Iveragh peninsula so the views at the top are fantastic. The summit itself however is a bland elevated hump and the hike up is no...

Cupidstown Hill: Accessing Cupidstown Wood from the North is difficult

I followed Track #2611, which starts at Slievethoul/Saggart Hill, and then heads south to Cupidstown Hill. No problem with Saggart Hill. However, the access into Cupidstown Wood at O 009 211 is ve...

This track is corrupted. It appears to be two separate tracks that are joined. Saggart Hill and Cupidstown Hill are one track; Lugnagun is another track that is a significant distance away. The tr...

Geokaun: Drive time

Summit Comment TommyV 5 days ago
Nothing to add on the directions as its very straight forward. The weather turned just as we drove to the summit so we didn't even get to do the short looped walk.

Garmin: Track 2013 in area near Crockmulroney, Donegal NW (Ireland)
Derryveagh- Figure of 8 Circuit

Descent: 228m

Places: Start at B97113 15881, Crockmulroney, Cró an Locháin, Cruach na Sagart, Maumlack, end at Start

Starting at the back gate of Glenveagh national park this walk provides an ever widening vista of the Derryveagh mountains as the walk progresses. I particularly liked how a triangular profile of Errigal gradually appears on the ascent of Staghall mountain until, when i reached the summit of Maumlack mountain the view had widened out to include the entire seven sisters from Muckish to Errigal. The weather conditions on this autumn day yielded enough clarity of visability to also give a glimpse of Slieve League and what I assume to be Ben Bulbin in the far distance to the South.- A thoroughly enjoyable walk!
NB- The correct total ascent for this walk was 608m
